Estimates for one month on monthly billing, October 2026. Images are GPT Image 2.5, square, at 2K and high quality. Videos are 8 second Veo 3.1 clips at 1080p. Krea only prices Veo 3.1 at 720p without sound, so its figure uses that.
Models
Paste an API key from any of these labs and its models show up in the picker.

Questions
Yes. The app is free and open source under the MIT license. You pay the AI labs for what you generate, at their own prices, and Umber adds nothing on top.
Google, OpenAI, Black Forest Labs, ByteDance, Kling, Alibaba, Runway, Ideogram, Recraft, xAI, Reve and MiniMax. One key is enough to start.
No. There is no Umber server. Keys are encrypted with your operating system's keychain, requests go straight from your computer to the lab and everything you make stays on your computer.
Pick a template for LinkedIn, Tinder or Instagram and add a few photos of yourself. Umber writes the prompt and picks the settings, and you get photos sized for that platform.
macOS, Windows and Linux.
